Exciting News

Good Evening Lovelies, well what a day! Started off bucketing it down this morning and I was driving down to Rochester to Oyster Stamps open day, it's only 50 mins away but the thought of driving in pouring rain wasn't doing it for me, but.........it stopped just before I left and turned out a beautiful warm sunny day.

I met up with a few of my lovely crafty friends who were demoing for Oyster Stamps, Eileen Godwin, Marianne Lait, Hellen Pearce and Martine Smith, plus a few other people I've met through workshops. So! While I was there Martine introduced me to Tracy, the lovely lady who I think owns Oyster Stamps? She asked to speak to me, anyway, cutting a long story shorter she asked me to join the Design Team, how fab is that, of course I've accepted and as a thank you I've made 3 cards, using products that are all available from Oyster Stamps, as a regular online shopper of theirs I have lots of stash from there Already, so it was easy to oblige xx

My first card I used Penny Black stamp and stencil to create the main image, which I already had, the fab stitched banner I bought today, the "Thanks" is a Penny Black die

Memory box corner die, Penny Black die and Donna Downey stamp set which I stamped with Archival first then the solid bit I used Brusho's and spritzed with mica in water to stamp with, the shimmer is subtle but very pretty, I already had all of these products in my stash, but they all came from OS.

The flowers and words are both Donna Downey and bought today, the corner die is from the same Memory box set as the first card.

Thank you for visiting today, I hope you like my cards, enjoy what's left of your Sunday xx Zoe xx

About Me

Hi, I'm married to Steve we live in a beautiful Dickensian seaside town in Kent,and have a Daughter who lives in Canada, we have a gorgeous Shih Tzu called Ernie, who is rather lazy!
Having been a hairdresser for over 30 years, 20 of which owning my own salon, I am now a Foster carer and love it!
I've been crafting one way or another since my Great Nan taught me to knit,at age 5, I've tried many things, but Papercraft is my true love, particularly stamping and getting inky messy! I don't have a particular style, like a lot of crafters I like to experiment with different techniques and mediums, it also takes most of my money too! shhhh don't tell hubby teehee!
